2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Tonga Green

Just Changed Intercooler Pipe for Silicone

The car has been billowing smoke when at full throttle, so decided to change the pipe.

Anyway, changed the pipe, cut my fingers etc.

The pipe had oil in it, is this normal or an issue (think I know this answer).

Oil was more noticeable at the bottom of the pipe, but it was also at the top and a little in the housing the top of the intercooler hose joins to. I have no mechanical knowledge, so that's the best your getting!

So I might not have a big bill infront of me?

Just off to fill her up and give her a blast on the motorway.... That will answer the questions...

Give it a good few blasts at full throttle. If the hose was split, the exhaust system does get choked with soot
